Theodore was a rival with
papacy following the death of Pope Conon (21 September 687), and thus is considered an antipope of the Roman Catholic Church
.
Biography
Prior to the disputed election, Theodore was an
Santa Susanna as Conon's successor. Having thus decided on Sergius, they brought him to the Lateran and forced their way in. Theodore immediately conceded the office, and abased himself to Sergius.[1]
Paschal remained unconvinced, and while pretending to accept Sergius, sent messengers to the
John Platyn promising gold in exchange for military support. The exarch arrived, demanded the gold, and looted Old St. Peter's Basilica, but departed after Sergius I's consecration (15 December 687).[2]
